Well, not all such commands can be expected to do something useful. Stopping mounts which the system depends on is going to break it, so trying to "systemctl stop -- -.mount" is rightfully refused already, while unmounting other things like /dev/pts will just eventually break your system anyway. Personally I think that Stephane's second patch was just about the right compromise: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/attachments/20150115/f56f60ce/attachment-0001.patch It is reasonably future-proof (unlike the first patch) and avoids the problem you mentioned too, i. e. silently not doing operations while they appear to be successful. @Lennart: We now have three patches -- could you make an executive decision which one we take? :-) Thanks, Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
